Police suspect foul play in disappearance

ALICE - Alice police now suspect foul play in the disappearance of a man last month, but they aren't saying why.

After interviewing 15 people, including relatives, the Alice Police Department no longer is treating 61-year-old Alice resident Enrique Hughes Jr.'s Nov. 3 disappearance as a missing person case, Alice Police Chief Daniel Bueno said Monday. Bueno said police determined foul play was involved after speaking with family members and others concerning Hughes's disappearance but would not comment as to why police believe that.

Hughes last was seen at his residence in the 300 block of Hobbs Street on the afternoon of Nov. 3, Bueno said. Police believe a female picked Hughes up in a vehicle at his house, he said.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts can call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-460-5589.
